Re: Amiga MAME/MESS - anyone working on it?

@RomanceClip

Both yes and no.

Sometimes the stutters can be fixed by software. Alot of work has gone into fixing the audio problems.
But the VIA686B southbridge chip suffers from interrupt problems (stated several times by OS4 audio driver author DaveAE). So heavy bus usage like advanced 3D games or such will probably never work without stuttering on A1's.
This is of course not a issue on any new hardware that may/will be released for OS4.

Exactly what files on OS4 handles screen modes in some way? ENVARC:/sys/screenmode.prefs, DEVS:picassomode96, Radeon monitor icon.. More?

Also what is the default screenmode OS4 opens when the screenmode.prefs file can't be found (with some modes put in the Radeon icon)? Any preference? Lowest resolution?

I'd like to know why creating screenmodes in Radeon icon, that I know follows the specs of my LCD, produce
a black screen (no open screen mode on the LCD)?

The Update 4 CD boots alright with the preconfigured 800x600 screen mode. But adding the very exact to my own Radeon icon of the OS4 install produce nothing. Also even if I copy the screenmode prefs file from the CD to my system produce nothing.

Screen modes that work flawlessly on Windows aren't possible to open on my OS4 (outside specs the LCD says). If I fiddle with the frame sizes in PicassoMode96 I can open a 1280x1024 test screen though.

I have a ViewTronic VP730 17" LCD and a ?A1-C.

EDIT: Please OS4 Team, we need a proper screen mode creator GUI setup, a new and improved PicassoMode96 if you will.

IIRC Max Tretene (Soft3) said their target price is something like 400? including OS4 which is not bad for a start.


Hmm Has the price changed lately?
Mr Tretene himself posted on AW that the price would
be 450? including OS4 but without VAT.

AW link

This will make the end price even higher than 550?, here
in Sweden anyway with 25% VAT.

Not that I have a problem with this price myself but I know
it will not make a huge success outside our community.

Stir? I meant that in the friendliest of ways..

Atheist has mentioned several times on AW that he wanted
a site like this. So that's why I said this..

Flash is on its way for IBrowse 2.4 through the use of the
new plugin system. The first plugin, hopefully followed by
alot of third party ones later..

Stefan Burstroem (Ibrowse main author) is also working on
JavaVM, as he has said on the interview some months back.

Re: So what should we be compiling for....

IMHO all developers should compile for OS4 first hand.
Then if possible or without too much hassle a OS3
compile aswell.
After all we want Amiga NG to succeed don't we? If it
fails then classics will die completely sooner anyway.

Yes it looks quite nice..

But (always a but) it depends on the price.

It should be under 400? including OS4 IMO. Over 500?
is a disaster. 300? could help Amiga make a comeback.
This of course including VAT.

We probably won't see prices anywhere near 300?
though.. Around 550? including OS4 and VAT is more
probable.
